Now it is time to cheat!

I painted this outside. Took that picture above by the porch light. Came inside. Noticed the flower was much more vivid!

Turns out the paper had buckled, bowing out, adding more vibrant light to the top and putting the bottom in shadow. Making it look 3D, because it was 3D

Today I went to the art store on my lunch break (very dangerous) and walked out with a new set of watercolor paints.

Behold my first attempt at something vaguely representational! Three layers of yellow on the dandelion! Many mixed shades of green! Looks amateurish, because it is!

Planning out this quilt square as part of a retirement quilt for our pastor and his wife

My son picked out the fabrics and I am making the square

Gotta get it done tonight because my daughter is going to start sewing up the quilt tomorrow

Started drawing as a response to the chat GPT studio ghibli nonsense. I just found myself getting mad at how good the AI was (at some aspects of coloration and composition) so I said fuck it and started putting pen to paper

One step ahead of you!

I haven’t done all of the classic Lucy joints. Just a couple. I prefer Groveland Tap over The Nook. Haven’t been to Matt’s or the 538 club; any other location I have tried either has been outright bad or forgettable

I went looking and couldn’t find a link to the Noah photo in question. Here it is. It’s called “Hope” if I remember correctly. Sorry for the spurious reflections.

Family is out of the house for a bit so I am taking the opportunity to fix this door

Bonus game: find the kitty

Extra bonus: find the Noah Grey photo. (Last time I visited Noah I fixed his furnace door with a very similar problem)

Got my synth set up with a keyboard for the first time since The Move. (I lost my homemade midi->CV converter and it still hasn’t shown up)

This new keyboard has CV outs but I had to wire some mini jack -> breadboard adapters (altos tin)

Keyboard is being played by my 4yo
